Overall, fairly well. I set up Moonlight + Sunshine for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by how well it ran on my network.

Look Back is just stunning to watch!

This is what I’m talking about. There’s a pause when you take hits. It reminds me of how Zelda games makes combat feel in the 3D titles.

Combat example

I put about 10 hours into the game. I think the way hits and getting hit feels. It’s been a while but doesn’t the screen pause slightly when it happens?

I know people complain about the difficulty but I was fine with what I experienced in it. I grew up in the 80s playing the original Mega Man games hahaha.

Hollow Knight. I know the new game is coming out tomorrow (?) but I just couldn’t get into the way the game feels. I love Metroidvanias but something about Hollow Knight and it’s gameplay just didn’t make me come back for more.

I’m not sure if it’s new but the text editing and moving the cursor has a magnifier now like iOS. Love it!

I saw a report talking about if there’s a “song of the summer” this year. A lot of people said there isn’t because more than ever we’re siloed to our own music library/playlists.

Personally, I spend a few hours a week actually looking for new artists to listen to. There’s so much music out there just waiting to be discovered.

Social distancing was the most insane part? I just got COVID again last week and now I’m wishing whoever gave it to me was social distancing a bit more haha.

I’m not sure where the Trails games fall when it comes to being dialogue or story heavy, but it has taken me a good 380 hours to get to the 7th game in the series (Trails of Cold Steel 2) playing over the last 3 years and it has been fantastic.

I’m in my early 40s and have a kindergartener so gaming is fairly limited. These games have become my “nightly TV” where I play about an hour before I go to bed.

I recently came back from a trip to Japan and S Korea and ended up getting COVID on the plane ride back. This is my 2nd time getting COVID and I’m happy it’s much more mild than the first time I had it back in 2022.

Various stages of holding in your pee

Danger from Secret of Mana / Seiken Densetsu 2. I love me some boss battle music!

I’m traveling to Japan And South Korea this week. I’m looking forward to the trip but mostly excited for my wife who works way too hard and never treats herself to anything.

Yeah, I feel like I’d not want to spend time stationing this at all though I do understand that it being a land is a perk.

I’ve always dreamt of creating music for video games. Ended up becoming a developer but still dabble with music here and there.

I subscribe to Deezer but use Deemix to download the FLAC files without DRM for my personal library. If the music you want is on Deezer, then you can download it.

I’d love one and thank you!

Someone on Reddit did an AMA and said he had 7 kidneys. I need to catch up!

I will probably need another transplant in about 5 years. I’ll let you know if I’ve gained any powers then!
